Hi All,
My little guy is surely living up to his name. I named my cat Pita (aka Pain in the Ass) and I don't know if this is self fulfilling prophecy or what.
He's 2 years of age and I just moved apartments for the first time with him. The space is definitely smaller and had to get rid of his cat tree (bought cat steps though, should be arriving soon), and he's not adjusting well. He's with one of the same roommates from the last apartment, but it's only her and I, compared to three other people before.
He peed on my roommate's bed twice and now twice; he's never done this before. His litter box is usually pretty clean. He also knocks down things in my room for about two hours each night. I literally have to remove all the breakable things each night, so that he doesn't knock them down. I've begun ignoring him this past week, per online sources, so I'm hoping this will work...anyone have any luck doing that strategy? How long did it take for your cat to get it? I play with him once a night for about 30 min-1hour and I'm working mostly remotely now, so I'm home more. I'm not sure what's up with my guy? Anyone have any sense?
We'll be going to the vet next week and I'm thinking of asking for a behavior health referral. Any luck for anyone?
